Academic Dishonesty

Students at Montana State University Billings are expected to do their own work in their own words and with their own ideas. If they quote or paraphrase the words of others, they are expected to indicate whom it is they are quoting or paraphrasing. An instructor who believes that a student has claimed the work of someone else as his or her own may take what steps he or she wishes up to failing the student and referring the student to others on campus for further discipline. The Student Handbook contains more detailed information about the policy on Academic Dishonesty. Please refer to Part IX, section B of the student handbook for further information.
